August 11, 2026 Scoutbook Plus Updates

Bug Fixes

  • Adventures
    • The error message on Adventures has been split to clearly indicate that the Scout is not eligible to earn the adventure or that the leader is not able to update the adventure. Previously the two were combined into a single message.
  • Bulk Print Blue Card
    • An issue that prevented a newly started Merit Badge from appearing in the Bulk Print Blue Card listing has been fixed.
    • An issue that prevented some leaders from printing Blue Cards has been fixed.
  • Eagle Rank
    • An issue that prevented Public Speaking MB from showing under Eagle Requirement 3 has been fixed.
  • Merit Badges
    • An issue that caused the wrong number to be displayed on the Started Merit Badge tile in the Merit Badge section of the Scout’s page has been fixed. A new Completed tile has been added. Completed lists MBs that are marked complete but are not leader approved. Started means the MB has one or more requirements marked complete, an initial leader signature or a comment. Approved means the MB is leader approved.
  • Messaging
    • An issue that prevented selecting some leaders to send the message to has been fixed.
    • An issue that caused a message to fail if it contains a URL has been fixed.
  • Reports
    • An issue that could have caused the Council Users Report to limit the number of users displayed has been fixed.
    • An issue that caused some reports to still use legacy Scoutbook parent/youth connections instead of Akela relationships has been fixed.

New Features

  • Merit Badge Page
    • The Merit Badges on the Scout’s Merit Badge page have been updated to better align with the display on Eagle Requirement 3. The icon in the upper right corner of each MB has been removed. The status of the MB is now shown below the MB image with the MB name and completion date below.
